I am considering moving to Doha from Dubai, I am currenlty doing my Maths and wondered if anyone could tell me the going rate for Live in and Live out Nanny/maid.
Same here, could you pls pm the numbers of the live-out maids, and do you have any idea, what they would cost approximately. I have been giving many ads in the classifieds in gulf times., but so far have been unsucessful, I would be really greatful to you, if u could help me with this. thnkks.
As far you are not indonesian you can sponsor your maid. Easiest way used the maid agency over here to do the paper work. The cost is not cheap. A friend of mine spent over QR 6000 for the paperwork.
Go to expatwoman.com, there are few ladies who bring maid full time live in.
What is the cost other than air fare? Is there some kind of sponsorship fee and what would be the process. I will be getting my current maid ( working with me in Malaysia) , so do I need to pay agency fees? Also is the going rate QR 700 /month?
keromal, try contacting the aforementioned agencies for live-out nanny options. I have a few live-out nanny contacts of my own that I can PM you (if you wish). They work around Landmark & Duhail area so they prefer other part-time jobs located there.
I'd have second thoughts about having a nanny holding my 6-month-old baby. INHO, she needs mommy full-time at that age (if it is economically feasible). We didn't get a nanny until dd (darling daughter) was 1-year-old.
Working with Manpower Agency (behind Immigration R/A), they took one month between selecting a nanny and I picking her up. They said part of the delay was caused by the availablity of flights from Jakarta and Doha. Apparently, the agency wanted to bring over a whole bunch of Indonesian housemaids/labourers on the same flight. So, having to book them all together delayed the flight.
Well I looked over there and really couldn't find anyone discussing price but I know I've seen it before. Only found tips on dealing with them. :) Start a new thread over there and I know someone will help.
Nanny or maid (housemaid) mean the same thing. In Arabic, kadama (sp?). What matters is the skills/experience. If you want a nanny, look for childcare experience. If you want a housemaid, look for housekeeping experience. But its the same kind of woman you'll be hiring or sponsoring. Find this experience/skills out from interview or a candidate catalogue. If you want to sponsor a kadama, you need to get her a kadama visa.

Going rate for live-out maids who you don't sponsor = QR1200/month (depends on ethnic background (Filipina, Indonesian, OR Ethiopian -- cheapest is the last)
Going rate for live-in maids who you sponsor = QR700/month. This is the agency-required rate for Indonesian housemaids (which I have) but Phillipino is QR800 and Ethiopian is QR600.
Personally, sponsoring your own housemaid is the way to go. The agency fee is steep up front (QR7000) but it pays off -- peace of mind (she's more dependable) and lower per-monthly fee. But not all wives like the idea of another woman hanging around the house. Mine is OK, but some aren't.
I object to that comment - if you want a maid or nanny you can organise it easily through and agency. You need to get a visa for her from the labour department first.

Not sure what else to do.
